Quotes

  • I sit beside my lonely fire
    And pray for wisdom yet:
    For calmness to remember
    Or courage to forget.
    • Remember or Forget, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
  • Do you recall that night in June
    Upon the Danube River;
    We listened to the ländler-tune,
    We watched the moonbeams quiver.
    • The Danube River, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
